    Ok, try to stay as calm as possible. If you havent eaten anything since last night then there is noway you will have anything to bring back up! Just take lots of sips of water and try not to tense up our stomach. If you actually go to the bathroom and try to be sick you may find that it is harder than you think to actually be sick. Also if you have a cd player or some form of relaxing music you can play-i find that really helps! Keep us posted....

    Try and calm down. Take some slow deep breaths, and please try and calm down. I think part of the reason you are feeling so sick is because you are very worked up, so you really need to take deep breaths and calm down. You said you haven't eaten since last night, could you maybe be hungry? Do you have any sprite, or ginger ale? Or any drinks with some sugar? Your blood sugar could be down very low with no food in your system and that will make you sick. How are you feeling now? Do you think you could take a break from work and go walk and get some fresh air? I know that helps when I feel sick.I am so sorry you are going through this, but everything will be alright, I promise.


    That which does not kill us only makes us stronger.

    kate, I am so sorry you are going through this. Do you think maybe it could be a migraine, I knw those can make you pretty sick. Could you leave and go see your doctor and get a shot for the nausea? I hope you get to feeling better soon, my thoughts are with you. Please keep us posted!!

    Kate, sorry to hear you are feeling this way. It may help if you sip on something like ginger ale or Sprite, as Michele mentioned. I find that helps to ease my stomach. If you truly feel that you may *v*, I probably would not eat anything for a bit. Do you have anything that you could take for the nausea? I usually keep a prescription of Phenergan, although it does make you drowsy. You probably couldn't work taking something like that. You may want to get some non-drowsy Dramimine over the counter. I know that Emetrol isn an anti-emetic too, although I've never tried it. I wish that you were able to go home and rest for a little while. That would probably help tremendously. Please update us on how you are doing. I hope you feel better!

    Jennyleigh and Jess...thanks so much for the kind words..it helps to know that people who actually understand what you are going through feel your pain and fears...i am sipping on a 7up now...that is all there is here at work....besides reg. coke...anyway it's a little better but I still feel bad in my head...i am still nauseas...but not a bad right this minute...it had gone away some and then when i tried to eat that cracker...wow...it hit me like a ton of bricks again...it's so awful feeling...i feel somewhat like a bug or something...but then again i am due to start my period too any day...but I have cold chills too...then i will be hot..so maybe it's all related..i usually get sick with my period... but never to the point of feeling like this bad....gosh...i would for sure rather just lay down and die somewhere...i think I have heard of these meds you have mentioned...maybe i will go by the store and get some...if it hasn't stopped soon................... again thanks...and thank you for you kindness and nice words....if ever i can help any of you...i will be here...Kat

    Glad you made it through without *v*, Kate! It sounds like all of this may be related to your period, so hopefully you will feel better soon.

    Thanks jess...I think you are right...it just seems so strange for it to happen every single month...however..i guess I will need to make an appt. with my gyno and try to figure this out...it's ridiculous...to feel this way once maybe twice a month...b/c sometimes it does happen more than once..anyway thanks again...Kat
